SYSTRA Celebrates 50 Years Supporting UK Transportation Sector

More than 250 guests from across 130 organisations attended the celebration at the iconic London Transport Museum on Thursday, 27 June 2019.

Guest of honour The Rt Hon the Lord Adonis of Camden Town, former Secretary of State for Transport and Chairman of the National Infrastructure Commission, was invited to share his views on the major challenges faced by the UK transportation sector.

He spoke of increasing passenger capacity, developing green transport solutions, improving reliability for the benefit of users and how the industry can work together to help achieve these goals.

Pascal Mercier, SYSTRA Ltd’s CEO commented: "This year we celebrate a very big milestone for SYSTRA in the UK, delivering excellence in transportation consultancy and engineering for over half a century. It was great to have so many clients, partners and friends to mark this special event at the iconic London Transport Museum. From the Tyne and Wear Transport Study of 1968 to delivering HS2, the future backbone of UK transports, we have always been known for the intellectual rigor of our work, excellence and bold leadership of our staff. These values and the benefits of being connected to a group with global capabilities drive our strategic vision to become the Signature Team for transportation solutions in the UK”.
